Missed Opportunities

I read today that Norwegian Umoe Solar Inc is buying UPMs paper plants in New Brunswick. Here is a company from a country that has had a Carbon Tax since 1991 and close control of the petroleum industry forcing carbon capturing. Mr Dion wanted to take Canada on a route to be a world leader in green manufacturing and renewable energy. The current government blocks all efforts to clean up our country. Now we have foreign companies buying our companies who have the funds and technologies because their country forced them to be more energy efficient and creative so at a time of economic downturn they make money off our inertia. We need a government committed to the greater good of all Canadian citizens future health and economic opportunities not big polluting multinationals.
